Induction Cooktop

How Induction Surface Cooking Works

The surface units beneath the cooking surface produce a magnetic field that generates heat in ferrous metal pans that are in close proximity.
The cooking surface itself does not heat. Heat is produced in the cooking pan, and cannot be generated until a pan is placed on the cooking surface.
When the surface unit is activated, the pan begins to heat immediately and in turn heats the contents of the pan.
Magnetic induction cooking requires the use of cookware made of ferrous metals - metals to which magnets will stick, such as iron or steel.
Use pans that fit the surface unit size. The pan must be large enough for the surface unit to detect the pan and be able to deliver full power.
The cooktop will not operate if a very small steel or iron utensil, such as a steel spatula, cooking spoon, knife or other small utensil, is placed on the cooking surface when the surface unit is turned on.

• The induction cooking surface units may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.
• DO NOT TOUCH HOT COOKWARE or PANS directly with hands. Always use mitts or pot holders to protect hands from burns.
• DO NOT SLIDE cookware across the cooktop surface. Doing so may permanently damage the appearance of the ceramic cooktop.

The pan material is correct if a magnet sticks to the bottom.

Operating the Surface Units

FIRE HAZARD: Never leave the range unattended with the cooktop on medium or high settings. Keep flammable items away from the cooktop. Turn off all controls when done cooking. Failure to follow these instructions can result in fire, serious injury or death.
Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the top and makes cleanup easier.
Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model.
Place your Induction designed cookware on the cooking surface. Push the knob in and turn in either direction to the setting you want.

Hot Light
For glass cooktop surfaces:
A HOT indicator light on the control will:

• turn on when a cooking surface is turned on.
• stay on even after the surface unit is turned off,
• stay on until the surface unit is cooled to approximately 150°F.

Pan Detection
An indicator light on the oven control will glow steadily when any surface unit is on AND induction ready (ferrous) cookware is on the cooktop. Refer to "Using the correct size cookware" section of this manual if the indicator light is flashing.

Cookware for Induction Cooktop

The following information will help you choose cookware which will give good performance on induction cooktops.

Recommended
Use quality cookware with heavier bottoms for better heat distribution and even cooking results. Choose cookware made of magnetic stainless steel, enamel coated cast iron, enameled steel or combinations of these materials.
Some cookware is specifically identified by the manufacturer for use with induction cooktops. Use a magnet to test if the cookware will work.
Flat-bottomed pans give best results. Pans with rims or slight ridges can be used.
Round pans give best results. Pans with warped or curved bottoms will not heat evenly.
For wok cooking, use a flat-bottomed wok. Do not use a wok with a support ring.

Not Recommended
Induction Interface Disks or Silicone Pads.

For Best Result

• Covering a pot with a lid will make it heat faster.
• Place only dry pans on the surface units. Do not place lids on the surface units, particularly wet lids, Wet pans and lids may stick to the surface when cool and may leave mineral deposits on the cooktop that may affect the cooktop appearance.
• Do not use woks that have support rings. This type of wok will not heat on glass surface units. We recommend that you use only a flat-bottomed wok. They are available at your local retail store. The bottom of the wok should have the same diameter as the surface unit to ensure proper contact.
• Some special cooking procedures require specific cookware such as pressure cookers or deep-fat fryers. All cookware must have flat bottoms and be the correct size.

Using the Correct Size Cookware

Pans that are not ferrous or are too small will not allow the induction surface units to turn on, and the ON indicator for that surface unit location will flash for 25 seconds and then turn off. If a pan is removed from or not centered on the induction coil, the power for the surface unit will be shut off within 30 seconds.
Cookware larger than the surface unit ring may be used; however, heat will only occur above the surface unit.
For best results, the cookware must make FULL contact with the glass surface.
Do not allow the bottom of the pan or cookware to touch the surrounding metal cooktop trim.
For best performance, match the pan size to the surface unit size. Using a smaller pot on a larger surface unit will generate less power at any given setting.
When a surface unit is shut off because of missing, misplaced, or unsuitable cookware; the knob must first be turned to the "OFF" position before trying to turn the affected surface unit back on.

For more recommended cookware and additional troubleshooting tips, check out self-help videos and FAQ at GEAppliances.com/support.

Cookware "Noise"

Slight sounds may be produced by different types of cookware. Heavier pans such as enameled cast iron produce less noise than a lighter weight multi-ply stainless steel pan. The size of the pan, and the amount of contents, can also contribute to the sound level.
When using adjacent surface units that are set at certain power level settings, magnetic fields may interact and produce a low whistle or intermittent "hum". These noises can be reduced or eliminated by lowering or raising the power level settings of one or both of the surface units. Pans that completely cover the surface unit ring will produce less noise.
A low "humming" noise is normal particularly on high settings.
Sounds you may here: You may hear a slight "Buzz" when cooking with Hi mode. This is normal. The sound depends on the type of pot being used. Some pots will "Buzz" louder depending on the material. A "Buzz" sound may be heard if the pan contents are cold. As the pan heats, the sound will decrease. If the power level is reduced, the sound level will go down.

Power Control

If a surface unit is on power level Hi (high), for an extended period of time or if multiple surface units are on, there may be a slight reduction in power to the surface unit. Water under pans may also cause the controls to reduce the power delivered to the cookware.

Oven Cooking Modes

Your new oven has a variety of cooking modes to help you get the best results. These modes are described below. Refer to the Cooking Guide section for recommended rack positions and other tips for using these modes Remember, your new oven may perform differently than the oven it is replacing.
Place racks in the desired position(s) prior to starting the oven. For some cooking modes, such as Bake, the oven will preheat and a tone will sound when the oven is ready for cooking. Some cooking modes do not require preheating. To reduce preheating times, remove unused racks and avoid opening the oven door until the preheat tone sounds.
While in use, oven heaters will cycle on and off as needed to maintain appropriate cooking conditions. Avoid frequently opening the oven door, as this can impact cooking times and performance.
NOTE (on some models): A cooling fan will turn on to cool internal parts when the oven is used. This is normal, and the fan may continue to run after the oven is turned off.

Bake

The Bake mode is intended for baking and roasting on a single rack. To use this mode, press the Bake pad and use the number pads to set the desired temperature, then press Start.
Preheating is generally recommended when using this mode, especially for preparing baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and pastries.

Broil Modes

Monitor food closely while broiling. Use caution when broiling on upper rack positions as placing food closer to the broil element increases smoking, spattering, and fats igniting, For best performance center food below the broil heating element. Try broiling foods that you would normally grill. Adjust rack positions to adjust the intensity of the heat to the food. Always use the Broil mode with the oven door closed.

Broil High

Broil High uses intense heat from the upper element to sear foods. Use Broil High for thinner cuts of meat and/or when you would like to have a seared surface and less done interior. To use this mode press the Broil pad once and then press Start.
It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Broil Low

Broil Low uses less intense heat from the upper element to cook food thoroughly while also browning the surface. Use Broil Lo for thicker cuts of meat and/or foods that you would like cooked all the way through. To use this mode, press the Broil pad twice and then press Start.
It is not necessary to preheat when using this mode.

Convection Bake Multi Rack

The Convection Bake Multi Rack mode is intended for baking on multiple racks at the same time. This mode uses heat from the upper and lower elements, along with air movement from the convection fan to enhance cooking evenness. Baking time might be slightly longer for multiple racks than what would be expected for a single rack.
Your oven is equipped with Auto Recipe Conversion, so it is not necessary to adjust from conventional Bake temperatures to Convection Bake temperatures when using this mode. See the Settings section for more information on Auto Recipe Conversion.
To use this mode, press the Convection Bake/Roast pad once and use the number pads to set the desired temperature, then press Start.
Always preheat when using this mode.

Convection Roast

The Convection Roast mode is intended for roasting whole cuts of meat on a single rack. This mode uses heat from the upper and lower elements along with air movement from the convection fan to improve browning and reduce cooking time. Check food earlier than the recipe suggested time when using this mode or use a meat probe.
To use this mode, press the Convection Bake/Roast pad twice and use the number pads to set the desired temperature, then press Start.

Air Fry

The Air Fry mode is a special convection mode that uses hot, fast-moving air and is designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than traditional oven cooking. The Air Fry mode is intended for single rack cooking only. To use this mode, press the Air Fry pad and use the number pads to set the desired temperature, then press Start.
The temperature can be set between 300°F and 500°F. Preheating is not necessary for this mode. Follow recipe or package traditional bake guidelines for set temperatures and cook times and adjust the cook time to achieve your desired crispness. Additional guidelines for using this mode can be found in the Air Fry Cooking Guide.

Pizza No Preheat

The Pizza No Preheat mode is designed to cook frozen pizzas. Most pizzas will cook within package recommended times. Adjust cooking time according to individual preferences. To use this mode, press the Pizza No Preheat pad and use the number pads to set the desired temperature, then press Start.
Use Pizza No Preheat when cooking on a single rack. Preheating is not necessary for this mode. Food should be placed in the oven before or immediately upon starting this mode.

Warm

Warm mode is designed to keep hot foods hot. Do not use warm to heat cold food, other than crisping crackers, chips, or dry cereal. Cover foods that need to remain moist and do not cover foods that should be crisp. It is also recommended that food should not be kept warm for more than two hours. To use this mode, press the Warm pad, then press Start.
Preheating is not necessary for this mode.

Reheat

The Reheat Mode is designed to heat previously cooked and refrigerated foods to serving temperature. Reheat mode is intended to be used without preheating and has two settings: High and Low. See the Reheat Cooking Guide for more Information.

Reheat High
Use Reheat High for thinner, smaller foods such as pizza slices or French Fries. To use this setting, press the Reheat pad once and then press Start. Food should be on a single rack and should be placed in the oven before or immediately after starting this mode.

Reheat Low
Use Reheat Low for thicker foods, larger quantities of food, or foods that are prone to over-browning such as casseroles or muffins. To use this setting, press the Reheat pad twice and then press Start. Food should be on a single rack and should be placed in the oven before or immediately after starting this mode.

Oven Cookware

The material, finish, and size of cookware affect baking performance. Dark, coated and dull pans absorb heat more readily than light, shiny pans. Pans that absorb heat more readily can result in a browner, crisper and thicker crust. If using dark and coated cookware check food earlier than the minimum cook time. If undesirable results are obtained with this type of cookware consider reducing oven temperature by 25°F next time.

• Shiny pans can produce more evenly cooked baked goods such as cakes and cookies.
• Glass and ceramic pans heat slowly but retain heat well. These types of pans work well for dishes such as pies and custards.
• Air insulated pans heat slowly and can reduce bottom browning.
• Stoneware heats slowly and retains heat well. It is recommended to preheat this type of cookware if possible. Additional cook time may be required.
• Cookware used in broil modes and air fry must be broil-safe.
• Keep cookware clean to promote even heating.

Oven Cooking Guide

*When baking four cake layers at a time with traditional bake, use racks 2 and 5. When baking four cake layers at a time with convection bake, use racks 3 and 5. Place the upper pans to the front and lower pans to the back.
Cook food thoroughly to help protect against food borne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations are provided by the USDA and FDA. Use a food thermometer to take food temperatures and check several locations.

Air Fry Cooking Guide

Air Fry is a special, no-preheat, cooking mode that is designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than traditional oven cooking. Select Air Fry, then input the desired set temperature and press Start. The temperature can be set between 300°F and 500°F.

Air Fry Cookware Guidelines

• Only use broil safe cookware when using Air Fry mode.
• A dark sheet pan or oven air fry basket is recommended. A dark pan promotes better browning and crisping.
• When using an oven air fry basket or baking basket, a sheet pan can be placed on the rack below the foods to catch any drippings.
  

General Tips for Air Fry Mode

• The Air Fry mode is designed for cooking on a single rack.
• The Air Fry mode is designed to be used without preheating.
• Rack position 4 is recommended for most foods. Use rack position 3 for thicker foods.
• For frozen packaged foods, use traditional oven cooking instructions for set temperature and expected cook time. Adjust the cook time to achieve your desired crispness.
• Foods may cook faster than expected if the oven is already hot when food is placed in the oven.
• When air frying foods with sauce, it is recommended to apply the sauce at the end of cooking.
• If foods are browning too quickly, try a lower rack position or lower oven set temperature.
• It is not necessary to flip or stir food during cooking
• Arrange food in a single layer on the pan, do not overload the pan. For best results, food should not touch or overlap.
• Cook food thoroughly to help protect against food borne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations are provided by the USDA and FDA. Use a food thermometer to take food temperatures and check several locations.

Reheat Cooking Guide

The Reheat cooking mode is designed to heat previously cooked foods to serving temperature. Reheat mode is intended to be used without preheating and has two settings: High and Low. Food should be on a single rack and should be placed in the oven before or immediately after starting this mode.

Reheat Cookware Guidelines

• Cookware used in Reheat mode must be oven safe.
• Metal pans are recommended. If using non-metal cookware such as glass or ceramic, check cookware manufacturer's instructions to determine if cookware can be used.
• Transferring food to a different container than what it was refrigerated in may be required as many non-metal storage containers cannot withstand rapid changes in temperature.

General Tips for Reheat Mode

• Do not preheat the oven when using Reheat mode.
• Rack position 3 is recommended.
• Use Reheat High for thin foods and small quantities of foods; arrange foods in a single layer.
• Use Reheat Low for thicker foods, larger quantities of foods or foods that are prone to over-browning.
• Leave food uncovered if a crispy texture is desired.
• Foods can be covered with aluminum foil when reheating.
  • Covered food will retain more moisture compared to uncovered food.
  • Covered food will take longer to reheat than uncovered food.
• Thinner layers of food will reheat more quickly than thicker layers.
• Cook food thoroughly to help protect against food borne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations are provided by the USDA and FDA. Use a food thermometer to take food temperatures and check several locations.

Aluminum Foil and Oven Liners

Do not use any type of foil or oven liner to cover the oven bottom. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire. Damage from improper use of these items is not covered by the product warranty.
Foil may be used to catch spills by placing a sheet on a lower rack, several inches below the food. Do not use more foil than necessary and never entirely cover an oven rack with aluminum foil. Keep foil at least 1-1/2" from oven walls to prevent poor heat circulation.

Oven Racks

Rack Positions

Your oven has 6 rack positions. Recommended rack positions for various types of foods are provided in the Cooking Guide, Adjusting rack position is one way to impact cooking results. For example, if you would prefer darker tops on cakes, muffins, or cookies, try moving food one rack position higher. If you find foods are too brown on top try moving them down next time.

When baking with multiple pans and on multiple racks, ensure there is at least 1%" between pans to allow sufficient space for air to flow. This may improve cooking evenness. To avoid possible burns, place the racks in the desired position before you turn the oven on.

Flat Racks

When placing and removing cookware, pull the rack out to the bump (stop position) on the rack support. To remove a rack, pull it toward you until it reaches the stop position, tilt up the front of the rack and pull it out. To replace a rack, place the curved end of the rack onto the rack supports. Tilt up the front of the rack and push the rack in until it stops. Then lay the rack flat and push it in until it is all the way into the oven.
Racks may become difficult to slide, especially after a self-clean cycle. To improve sliding conditions, use a soft cloth or paper towel to rub vegetable oil on the left and right edges of the racks and/or rack supports. Do not use other cooking oils like peanut oil, Pam* or other lubricant sprays, since this can cause a discoloring or a rust like color residue on the racks and cavity sides.
NOTE: Remove unused racks when using the oven for faster preheat, improved efficiency and optimal cooking performance. See the Accessories section for instructions on ordering additional racks.

Oven Air Vents

Never block the vents (air openings) of the range. They provide the air for the inlet and outlet that are necessary for the range to keep cool and operate properly. Air openings are located at the rear of the cooktop.

CARE AND CLEANING

Glass Cooktop

Normal, Daily Use Cleaning

To maintain and protect the surface of your glass cooktop, follow these steps:

1. Before using the cooktop for the first time, clean it with a ceramic cooktop cleaner. This helps protect the glass top and makes cleanup easier.
   
2. Regular use of ceramic cooktop cleaner will help keep the cooktop looking new.
3. Shake the cleaning cream well. Apply a few drops of ceramic cooktop cleaner directly to the cooktop.
4. Use a paper towel or non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops to clean the entire cooktop surface.

3. After scraping with the razor scraper, spread a few drops of ceramic cooktop cleaner on the entire burned residue area. Use a non-scratch cleaning pad to remove any remaining residue.
4. For additional protection, after all residue has been removed, polish the entire surface with ceramic cooktop cleaner and a paper towel.

NOTE: Do not use a dull or nicked blade.
The ceramic cooktop scraper and all recommended supplies are available through our Parts Center. See the Accessories and Consumer Support sections at the end of this manual.

Metal Marks and Scratches

1. Be careful not to slide pots and pans across your cooktop. It will leave metal markings on the cooktop surface.
   These marks are removable using the ceramic cooktop cleaner with a non-scratch cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops.
2. If pots with a thin overlay of aluminum or copper are allowed to boil dry, the overlay may leave black discoloration on the cooktop.
   This should be removed immediately before heating again or the discoloration may be permanent.
   NOTE: Carefully check the bottom of pans for roughness that would scratch the cooktop.
3. Be careful not to place aluminum baking sheets or aluminum frozen entrée containers on a hot cooktop surface. It will leave shinny dots or markings on the cooktop surface. These markings are permanent and cannot be cleaned off.

Damage from Sugary Spills and Melted Plastic

Special care should be taken when removing hot substances to avoid permanent damage of the glass surface. Sugary spillovers (such as jellies, fudge, candy, syrups) or melted plastics can cause pitting of the surface of your cooktop (not covered by the warranty) unless the spill is removed while still hot. Special care should be taken when removing hot substances. Be sure to use a new, sharp razor scraper. Do not use a dull or nicked blade.

1. Turn off all surface units. Remove hot pans.
2. Wearing an oven mitt: to protect your skin, use a single-edge razor blade scraper to move the spill to a cool area on the cooktop and remove the spill with paper towels.
3. Any remaining spillover should be left until the surface of the cooktop has cooled.
4. Don't use the surface units again until all of the residue has been completely removed.

NOTE: If pitting or indentation in the glass surface has already occurred, the cooktop glass will have to be replaced. In this case, service will be necessary.

Cooktop Perimeter

To clean the edges of the glass cooktop frame, use a non-scratching cleaning pad for ceramic cooktops or a soft bristle brush.
NOTE: Do not use a razor blade to clean this area.

Exterior Surfaces

Be sure all controls are off and all surfaces are cool before cleaning any part of the range.

If your range is removed for cleaning, servicing or any reason, be sure the anti-tip device is reengaged properly when the range is replaced. Failure to take this precaution could result in tipping of the range and can result in death or serious burns to children or adults.

NOTE: DO NOT allow stainless steel cleaner to come in contact with any plastic parts such as the control knobs or control panel. If unintentional contact of cleaners with plastic parts does occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and mild detergent mixed with warm water.
NOTE: The ceramic cooktop cleaner is NOT recommended for use on external painted surfaces.

Control Knobs

The control knobs may be removed for easier cleaning. Make sure the knobs are in the OFF positions and pull them straight off the stems for cleaning. The knobs can be cleaned in a dishwasher or they may also be washed with soap and water. Make sure the inside of the knobs are dry before replacing. Replace the knobs, in the OFF position to ensure proper placement.

Control Panel

It's a good idea to wipe the control panel after each use. Clean with mild soap and water or vinegar and water, rinse with clean water and polish dry with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers, strong liquid cleansers, plastic scouring pads or oven cleaners on the control panel - they will damage the finish.
If desired, the touch pads may be deactivated before cleaning. To lock or unlock the controls, press and hold the Lock Control pad for three seconds.

Oven Exterior Surfaces

Clean with a mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature. Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse. For other spills such as fat spatterings, wash with soap and water after the surface has cooled. Rinse well.
Do not use commercial oven cleaners, cleaning powders, steel wool or harsh abrasives on any exterior surface.

Stainless Steel Surfaces

(on some models)
Do not use a steel wool pad; it will scratch the surface. To clean the stainless steel surface, use warm sudsy water or a stainless steel cleaner or polish. Always wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. Follow the cleaner instructions for cleaning the stainless steel surface.
Cleaners with oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove surface rust, tarnish and small blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser free of grit and rub in the direction of the brush lines with a damp, soft sponge.

Fingerprint Resistant Stainless Steel and Other Finishes

(on some models)
DO NOT use stainless steel cleaners on fingerprint resistant stainless steel surfaces.

The use of incorrect products may damage the outer finish of Fingerprint Resistant Stainless and other finishes (i.e. white, black stainless, slate, etc.). Please follow these instructions and use only the appropriate items below to clean your appliance surfaces. Clean interior/exterior surfaces with warm water, mild soap or detergent, and a soft or microfiber cloth to avoid damage. Wipe the appliance surface dry with a soft, clean cloth or microfiber towel to avoid streaking or water spotting and making sure to remove all cleaning residue.

Storage Drawer

The storage drawer is a good place to store cookware and bakeware. Do not store plastics or flammable material in the drawer. Most cleaning can be done with the drawer in place. However, the drawer may be removed if further cleaning is needed or to clean underneath the range. Use soap and warm water to thoroughly clean. Never use harsh abrasives or scouring pads.

Removing the Storage Drawer:

1. Pull the drawer straight out until it stops.
2. Tilt the front of the drawer upward and pull the drawer free of the range.

Replacing the Storage Drawer:

1. Center the storage drawer left to right and insert the drawer into the opening, setting the drawer guides on the rails.
2. Keep the drawer level and pull it towards yourself until you feel the drawer guides catch and settle on the rails.
3. Push the drawer closed.

Interior Surfaces

The interior of your new oven can be cleaned manually or by using the Steam Clean mode or the Self Clean mode (on some models).
Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting liquids containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as safely possible. Let hot surfaces cool, then clean and rinse.

Manual Cleaning

Do not use oven cleaners (unless certified for use in a self-cleaning oven), abrasive cleaners, strong liquid cleansers, steel wool, scouring pads, or cleaning powders on the interior of the oven. Clean with a mild soap and water or a 50/50 solution of vinegar and water. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth. When cleaning surfaces, make sure that they are at room temperature.

Steam Clean Mode

Steam clean is intended to clean small spills using water and a lower cleaning temperature than Self-Clean. The steam clean cycle is designed to sufficiently heat the water added to the oven bottom at the beginning of the steam clean cycle, so that it increases in temperature and can then condense onto food soils, softening them and making them easier to remove.
To use the Steam Clean feature, allow the oven to cool so that you can wipe grease and soils from the oven bottom and to avoid pouring cold water onto a hot oven bottom to prevent possible thermal shock and enamel cracking. Pour 1/2 cup of water into the bottom of the oven. Close the door.
Press the Steam Clean pad and then press Start. You should not open the door during the 30 minute steam clean as this will decrease the steam clean performance. Wipe out any excess water and any remaining soil.
NOTE: Water in the bottom of the oven may be hot right after finishing the cycle.

Oven Racks

All racks can be washed with warm, soapy water. All oven racks may be cleaned by hand with an abrasive cleaner or steel wool. Racks may be more difficult to slide after a Steam Clean.
Put some vegetable oil on a soft cloth or paper towel and rub onto the left and right edges of the racks.
NOTE: Using other cooking oils like peanut oil, Pam^® or other lubricant sprays, will cause a discoloring or a rust like color residue on the racks and cavity sides. To clean this residue, use a soap and water or a vinegar and water solution. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth.

Oven Heating Elements

Do not clean the bake element or the broil element. Any soil will burn off when the elements are heated. On some models, to clean the oven floor, gently lift the bake element. Clean with warm, soapy water.

Porcelain Oven Interior

With proper care, the porcelain enamel finish on the inside of the oven - top, bottom, sides, back and inside of the door - will stay new-looking for years. Let the oven cool before cleaning. We recommend that you wear rubber gloves when cleaning the oven. Soap and water will normally do the job. Heavy spattering or spillovers may require cleaning with a mild abrasive cleaner. Soap-filled scouring pads may also be used. Do not allow food spills with a high sugar or acid content (such as tomatoes, sauerkraut, fruit juices or pie filling) to remain on the surface. They may cause a dull spot even after cleaning. Household ammonia may make the cleaning job easier. Place 1/2 cup in a shallow glass or pottery container in a cold oven overnight. The ammonia fumes will help loosen the burned-on grease and food. If necessary, you may use an oven cleaner that is certified for use in a self-cleaning oven. Follow the package directions.

• Do not spray oven cleaner on the electrical controls and switches because it could cause a short circuit and result in sparking or fire.
• Do not allow a film from the cleaner to build up on the temperature sensor - it could cause the oven to heat improperly. (The sensor is located at the top of the oven.) Carefully wipe the sensor clean after each oven cleaning, being careful not to move the sensor as a change in its position could affect how the oven bakes.
• Do not spray any oven cleaner on the oven door, handles or any exterior surface of the oven, cabinets or painted surfaces. The cleaner can damage these surfaces.

Air Fry Basket

(on some models)
The air fry basket can be washed with warm, soapy water or it may be cleaned in the dishwasher.
Do not use steel wool to clean the air fry basket since this may cause the stainless steel to rust.

EasyWash™ Oven Tray

Never use the oven without the EasyWash oven tray in place.
Allow the EasyWash oven tray to cool before, cleaning, handling or immersing in cold water. Failure to do so may result in damage to the part or enamel finish.
We recommend to wipe any loose or large debris from the EasyWash oven tray before removing from the oven to avoid spilling any debris on the area below the EasyWash oven tray.
Take care not to drop or knock the EasyWash oven tray against hard surfaces. It can damage the enamel and is not covered by the product warranty.
Parts that are visible when the EasyWash oven tray is removed will show discoloration due to heat. This does not require servicing or cleaning. Do not attempt to clean these components. This is expected with normal use, does not affect the performance of the oven and may change over time.
Handwashing the EasyWash oven tray is recommended to preserve the original appearance. For tough stains, soak the EasyWash oven tray in warm soapy water for 30 minutes before washing. Do not use harsh abrasive cleaners. Soft nylon scrub brushes, pads or scrapers are recommended. For more stubborn stains, a cleaner containing oxalic acid, such as Bar Keepers Friend^TM Soft Cleanser, can be used. Be sure to thoroughly rinse off any excess cleaners. Failure to do so can cause changes in the surface appearance or damage the coating.
The EasyWash oven tray can be placed in the dishwasher, dirty side facing down and across the bottom rack as shown below. However, dishwasher detergents which are strongly alkaline and cycle selection may have an impact on the appearance of the EasyWash tray over time, This will not impair the performance of the oven.

Make sure the EasyWash oven tray is fully dried before placing back in the oven.
Orient the EasyWash oven tray in the product so that the writing on the integrated handle is facing forward towards the front of the product. Not orienting the EasyWash oven tray correctly when reinstalling could result in uneven oven heating and poor oven cooking performance.

The rear edge of the EasyWash oven tray should be pushed back into the slot of the rear bottom trim and the front edge of the tray should be inset in the oven cavity and set flush with the oven cavity front edge, not on top of it. The EasyWash oven tray should set level and not sloped backwards

Oven Door

The door is very heavy. Be careful when removing and lifting the door. Do not lift the door by the handle.

To Clean the Door Exterior and Interior

Use soap and water to thoroughly clean the top, sides and front of the oven door. Rinse well. You may also use a glass cleaner to clean the glass on the outside of the door. Do not let water drip into the vent openings, holes, or slots in the door.

• If a stain on the door vent trim is persistent, use a mild abrasive cleaner and a sponge-scrubber for best results. Do not use this method on any other surface.
• Spillage of marinades, fruit juices, tomato sauces and basting materials containing acids may cause discoloration and should be wiped up as soon as safely possible. When the surface is cool, clean and rinse.
• Do not use oven cleaners, cleaning powders or harsh abrasives on the outside of the door.

To remove the door

NOTE: Door removal is not a requirement for installation of the product but is an added convenience.

1. Fully open the door.
2. Pull the hinge locks down toward the door frame, to the unlocked position. A tool, such as a small flatblade screwdriver, may be required.
   
3. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
4. Close door to the door removal position. The door should be open approximately 3" with no obstruction above the door.
   
5. Lift door up and out until both hinge arms are clear of the slots in the range frame.

To replace the door

1. Firmly grasp both sides of the door at the top.
2. With the door at the same angle as the removal position, rest the notch in the bottom of the left hinge arm on the bottom edge of the left hinge slot. The notch in the hinge arm must be fully seated onto the bottom of the slot. Repeat for the right side.
   
3. Fully open the door. If the door will not fully open, the notches in the bottoms of the hinge arms are not seated correctly onto the bottom edge of the slot. Lift the door off the range and repeat the previous step.
4. Push the hinge locks down to the locked position.
   
5. Close the oven door.

Oven Light

SHOCK OR BURN HAZARD: Before replacing oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or burn.

BURN HAZARD: The glass cover and bulb should be removed when cool. Touching hot glass with bare hands or a damp cloth can cause burns.

To Remove the Light Bulb

1. Turn the glass cover counterclockwise until the glass is removed. Wearing latex gloves may offer a better grip.
2. Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb by pulling it straight out.

To Replace the Light Bulb

1. Use a new 120/130-volt halogen bulb, not to exceed 50 watts. Replace the bulb with the same type of bulb that was removed. Be sure the replacement bulb is rated 120 volts or 130 volts (NOT 12 volts) and has a G9 base.
2. Using gloves or a dry cloth, remove the bulb from its packaging. Do not touch the bulb with bare fingers. Oil from skin will damage the bulb and shorten its life.
3. Push the bulb straight into the receptacle all the way.
4. Replace the glass cover. For improved lighting inside the oven, clean the glass cover frequently using a wet cloth. This should be done when the oven is completely cool and the light is off.
5. Reconnect electrical power to the oven.

• Use only dry pot holders-moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may result in burns from steam. Do not let pot holders touch surface units or oven heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot holders.
• Do not touch the burners, griddles (on some models), grates (on some models), the cooktop or oven heating elements, or the interior surface of the oven. These surfaces may remain hot enough to burn for an extended period of time following cooking, even though they no longer appear to be on or hot.
• During and after use, do not touch, or let clothing or other flammable materials contact any interior area of the oven; allow sufficient time for cooling first. Other surfaces of the appliance may become hot enough to cause burns. Potentially hot surfaces include burners or heating elements, grates (on some models), cooktop surface, oven vent openings, surfaces near the openings, crevices around the oven door, metal trim parts above the door, any backguard, or shelves located above cooking surface.
• Do not use any type of foil or liner to cover the oven bottom or anywhere in the oven, except as described in the Owner's Manual. Oven liners can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire.
• Do not heat unopened food containers. Pressure could build up and the container could burst, causing an injury.
• Cook food thoroughly to help protect against foodborne illness. Minimum safe food temperature recommendations are provided by the USDA and FDA. Use a food thermometer to take food temperatures and check several locations.
• Keep the ventilator hood and grease filters clean to maintain good venting and to avoid grease fires. Turn the ventilator OFF in case of a fire. The blower if in operation, could spread the flames.

KEEP FLAMMABLE MATERIALS AWAY FROM THE RANGE
Failure to do so may result in fire or personal injury.

• Do not store or use flammable materials in an oven or near the cooktop, including paper, plastic, pot holders, linens, wall coverings, curtains, drapes and gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids.
• Never wear loose-fitting or hanging garments while using the appliance. These garments may ignite if they contact hot surfaces causing severe burns.
• Do not let cooking grease or other flammable materials accumulate in or near the range. Grease in the oven or on the cooktop may ignite.
• Do not store any flammable materials or temperature sensitive items inside of the appliance.
• Clean ventilating hoods frequently. Grease should not be allowed to accumulate on the hood or filter.
• Remote Operation – This appliance is configurable to allow remote operation at any time.

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, TAKE THE FOLLOWING STEPS TO PREVENT INJURY AND FIRE SPREADING

• Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a flaming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a surface unit by covering the pan completely with a well-fitting lid, cookie sheet or flat tray. Use a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
• If there is a fire in the oven during baking, smother the fire by closing the oven door and turning the oven off or by using a multi-purpose dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
• (On some models) If there is a fire in the oven during self-clean, turn the oven off and wait for the fire to go out. Do not force the door open. Introduction of fresh air at self-clean temperatures may lead to a burst of flame from the oven. Failure to follow this instruction may result in severe burns.

COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• NEVER Operate the Top Surface Cooking Section of this Appliance Unattended. Boilovers can cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may catch on fire. Failure to follow this warning statement could result in fire, explosion, or burn hazard that could cause property damage, personal injury, or death.
• Never leave oil unattended while frying. If allowed to heat beyond its smoking point, oil may ignite resulting in fire that may spread to surrounding cabinets, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO EXTINGUISH AN OIL/GREASE FIRE WITH WATER.
• Use a deep fat frying thermometer whenever possible to monitor oil temperature. To avoid oil spillover and fire, use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying and avoid cooking frozen foods with excessive amounts of ice.
• Use proper pan size select cookware having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface heating element.
• To minimize the possibility of burns, ignition of flammable materials and spillage, the handle of a container should be turned toward the center of the range without extending over nearby surface units.
• Only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, earthenware or other glazed containers are suitable for cooktop service; others may break because of the sudden change in temperature.
• When preparing flaming foods under a hood, turn the fan on.
• 
  The induction cooking elements may appear to be cool while turned ON and after they have been turned OFF. The glass surface may be HOT from residual heat transferred from the cookware and burns may occur.

GLASS COOKTOP SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Use care when touching the cooktop. The glass surface of the cooktop will retain heat after the controls have been turned off.
• Do not cook on a broken cooktop. If glass cooktop should break, cleaning solutions and spillovers may penetrate the broken cooktop and create a risk of electric shock. Contact a qualified technician immediately.
• Avoid scratching the glass cooktop. The cooktop can be scratched with items such as knives, sharp instruments, rings or other jewelry, and rivets on clothing.
• Do not place or store items that can melt or catch fire on the glass cooktop, even when it is not being used. If the cooktop is inadvertently turned on, they may ignite. Heat from the cooktop or oven vent after it is turned on may cause them to ignite also.
• Use ceramic cooktop cleaner and a non-scratch cleaning pad to clean the cooktop. Read and follow all instructions and warnings on the cleaning cream label. Wait until the cooktop cools and the indicator light goes out before cleaning. A wet sponge or cloth on a hot surface can cause steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface.
  NOTE: Sugar spills are an exception. They should be scraped off while still hot using an oven mitt and a scraper. See the Cleaning the glass cooktop section in the Owner's Manual for detailed instructions.

OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

• Stand away from the range when opening the oven door. Hot air or steam which escapes can cause burns to hands, face and/or eyes.
• Do not use the oven if a heating element develops a glowing spot during use or shows other signs of damage. A glowing spot indicates the heating element may fail and present a potential burn, fire, or shock hazard. Turn the oven off immediately and have the heating element replaced by a qualified service technician.
• Keep the oven vent unobstructed.
• Never place cooking utensils, pizza or baking stones, or any type of foil or liner on the oven floor. These items can trap heat or melt, resulting in damage to the product and risk of shock, smoke or fire.
• Place oven racks in desired location while oven is cool. If rack must be moved while oven is hot, be careful to avoid touching hot surfaces and do not let pot holder contact hot heating element in oven.
• Do not leave items such as paper, cooking utensils or food in the oven when not in use. Items stored in an oven can ignite.
• Do not leave items on the cooktop near the oven vent. Items may overheat resulting in a risk of fire or burns.
• Never broil with the door open.
• Keep the oven free from grease buildup. Grease in the oven may ignite.
• When using cooking or roasting bags in the oven, follow the manufacturer's directions.
• SHOCK OR BURN HAZARD:
  Before replacing oven light bulb, disconnect the electrical power to the oven at the main fuse or circuit breaker panel. Failure to do so may result in electric shock or burn.
• 
  The glass cover and bulb should be removed when cool. Touching hot glass with bare hands or a damp cloth can cause bums.

SELF-CLEANING OVEN SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(On some models)

The self-cleaning feature operates the oven at temperatures high enough to burn away food soils in the oven. Follow these instructions for safe operation.

• Do not touch oven surfaces during self-clean operation. Keep children away from the oven during self-cleaning. Failure to follow these instructions may cause burns.
• Before operating the self-clean cycle, remove pans, shiny metal oven racks, and other utensils from the oven. Only dark-colored porcelain-coated oven racks may be left in the oven. Failure to do so may cause damage to these items and the oven and present a potential burn or fire hazard.
• Before operating the self-clean cycle, wipe grease and food soils from the oven. Excessive amount of grease may ignite leading to smoke damage to your home.
• If the self-cleaning mode malfunctions, turn the oven off and disconnect the power supply. Have it serviced by a qualified technician.
• Do not use oven cleaners. No commercial oven cleaner or oven liner protective coating of any kind should be used in or around any part of the oven unless certified for use in a self-cleaning oven.
• Do not clean the door gasket. The door gasket is essential for a good seal. Care should be taken not to rub, damage or move the gasket.
• 
  The health of some birds is extremely sensitive to the fumes given off during the self-cleaning cycle of any range. Move birds to another well-ventilated room.

How to Remove Protective Shipping Film and Packaging Tape

Carefully grasp a corner of the protective shipping film with your fingers and slowly peel it from the appliance surface. Do not use any sharp items to remove the film. Remove all of the film before using the appliance for the first time.
To assure no damage is done to the finish of the product, the safest way to remove the adhesive from packaging tape on new appliances is an application of a household liquid dishwashing detergent. Apply with a soft cloth and allow to soak.
NOTE: All protective packing must be removed from all parts. It cannot be removed if it is baked on.
Consider recycling options for your appliance packaging material.
